Easy Breakfast Casserole Muffins #recipe

The hardest meal of the day for me to make and eat something
filling and healthy is breakfast! I
don’t have a lot of time; getting the kids fed and out the door is my first
priority, so it has to be something quick and easy. Pinterest is a great source for
finding nearly any recipe you are looking for.
Here was the solution that I found for a fast, easy but delicious and
filling breakfast any day of the week, ready in ONE MINUTE.

This recipe makes 12 muffins. I like to do at least one batch, reserve a
few in the fridge and freeze the rest.
Then, through-out the week I pull out a couple each morning, and
microwave for one minute. They re-heat from
frozen perfectly. And then you have a
fast, protein-filled, hot breakfast even if you are in a time-crunch. My kids even love these.

Ingredients:

4-5 pieces whole wheat bread, torn into small pieces

8oz of finely diced ham, I like John Morrell brand (you
can also use sliced deli ham)

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

9 eggs

1 cup milk

2 teaspoons ground mustard

1 teaspoon ground pepper (or more or less to taste)

dried Parsley to taste

Instructions:

·
1) Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

·
2) Grease muffins tins well.

·
3) Press bread pieces evenly in
muffin tins until they come about ½ to the top of the tin.

·
4) Sprinkle ham pieces evenly in
each tin.

·
5) Sprinkle cheese evenly in each
tin.

·
6) Whisk together in bowl, eggs,
milk, ground mustard, and pepper.

·
7) Pour egg mixture evenly in each
muffin tin.

·
8) Sprinkle dried Parsley to taste
on the top of each muffin.

·
9) Bake for 15-18 minutes or until
golden brown on top and cooked through the middle.

·
Let sit for 5 minutes then remove
from tins and refrigerate. Place cooked muffins in sealed container in fridge, or in
the freezer in air-tight container.
Re-heat wrapped in a paper towel.
From frozen it takes about one minute for two muffins, cut in middle to
check for temperature. From fridge it takes
about 30 seconds to heat. Each Muffin
weighs in at approximately 115 calories.
You can also customize the recipe to your liking, if you don’t care for
ham, you can use turkey, omit the cheese or bread and add extra egg or veggies. Bon Appetite!!
